QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) Well the same guys that hit also defend in case you didn't know. Well the point of this game is to "Score" more runs than the opposition. Just in case you didnt know.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) He did have 14 Hr's last year, but he has barely shown any kind of power this year. Know i now his job is to get on base, but when he comes up w/ 2 outs he needs to try and drive the ball. Screw driving the ball. Everyone is hung up on power. MAKE CONTACT AND HIT LINE DRIVES. That is what we need with men on. If he hits a line drive into the gap it scores 2 and sets up the inning for another run. And now its not just me, Belton Bill, Farmio, Rooney and others have made comments about how we are near last in the AL in doubles and singles. And how that is a disturbing trend. Looks at our K numbers, they are pretty high for a small ball team.

Last year in the beginning of august we couldnt hit, struck out a bunch of times with men in scoring position. Kicked the ball around and lost like 11 in a row. This year the only reason that isnt happening is pitching and defense. But our offense is blowing dog. Small is a lot of things, but he is not a strikeout pitcher.

They should bench Uribe for the entire boston series. They should of realized that this guy was going to suck this year after he came to ST fat.

Freddy stop throwing hangers to the .153 reserve catcher.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:17 PM) This has Bernie Williams K then wild pitch to next hitter written all over it The ball almost got away from him Karnac. LOL what are the lottery numbers for tonight.

Freddy just loves to play with fire. He keeps getting behind hitter after hitter. Freddy this isnt the KC Royals.

They move the guy over 2nd and 3rd with one out. Lets see if their offense chokes like ours did.

CORPSEBALL 2005 THE DUMBALL EDITION How do you get men over to 2nd and 3rd with 1 out and then have two retards strike out. Make contact for gods sake.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:06 PM) Hanging curveball and Uribe just fouls it off. Uribe needs a week off. This crap is unreal. He cant make contact now.

WIDGEANATOR BUNTS THEM OVER FIRST GRINDER RULE GET THEM ON SECOND GRINDER RULE MOVE THEM OVER THIRD GET THEM IN LETS NOT VIOLATE RULE 3

He walks Blum. Men on first and 2nd no outs. LETS BE CREATIVE AND SCORE SOME RUNS. DONT STRAND THEM.

A single and the leadoff man is on. Its time to get this man over, and then get him in.

Its time to put some runs on the board.

ROWAND FILTHY FILTHY FIELDER. OMG TORIII WHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:55 AM) just tuned in - and yahoo is sleeping. what's the score? Yahoo and our offense have something in common. WIGERMANIA RUNS WILD. GUNS OUT JETER.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:52 AM) That might not work so well. Han was blind for a few days. So Everett then becomes Timo for a few days.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:51 AM) I want to see on the scroll for ESPN... White Sox OF Carl Everett placed on 15 day DL (Team offense sucks so bad, being saved for playoffs) They should encase him like Jabba did with Han Solo and thaw him out the last week of September Where is Carl. He is being preserved for the playoffs.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:48 AM) Rooney & Farmer were just talking about this on the radio. Everytime they face someone for the first time, they look like Cy Young. Don't they have scouts? Its that our hitters arent patient. If they would take a pitch or two and maybe look for a zone to swing in they would be ok with new pitchers. But the minute someone comes anywhere near the plate the bats are flying into the hitting zone putting it into play.

Everett is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Timo as the DH

Cy Small is on. Every pitcher that faces this terrible offense automatically becomes Cy "INSERT NAME HERE"

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) I can understand Ozuna, Blum and Widger filling in for Uribe, Crede, and AJ. But why take Iguchi out of the lineup?? He is probably are best hitter, and we have a day off tomorrow?? Uribe plays every single day no matter how bad he is. Ozuna rarely fills in for him.

This offense is so bad. Uribe K's. I am soooo glad we gave this mope a 3 year contract.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:10 AM) I don't mind it. Besides his homer, he hasn't done anything at the plate. 2 DP's yesterday. I'd rather see Aaron in the 2 spot myself. Actually Arow in the 2 spot would be nice.

QUOTE(JimH @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:12 AM) Nicely said. It is now 11:15 a.m. here in Chicagoland. I predict your sentiment will be forgotten in less than one hour, when all the arm chair managers get into today's game thread. Some of us have forgotten it already.
